Cael went to work early. Alas kwatro ng umaga ang flight ng ama. Inihatid niya ito sa airport. He will be in England for a few months. Hindi maialis ni Cael sa isip na iniiwasan siya ng ama. Kung kelan nandito na siya, tsaka naman ito umalis.
He went to the company early. Naisip niya na pwede naman siyang matulog duon dahil malaki ang couch. He was surprised to see the same girl na maagang umalis kahapon. Naka cream colored blouse ito at tan skirt na tila wrap around style. May ruffles din sa laylayan nito na lalong nagpatingkad sa curves ng babae.
Nag ayos ito ng mesa tapos ay unti unting humigop sa kape na nasa mug. Umuusok pa iyon and Cael can smell it from where he is. Galing siya sa comfort room. Hindi pansin ng babae na nakatingin siya kaya naman napagmasdam niya ito ng mabuti.
The girl is slender and oozing with sex appeal. Hindi niya makaisip ng dahilan sa pagiging ice princess nito. Was she jilted at the altar? O baka naman isinumpa nito ang mga lalaki dahil sinaktan ito ng isa. Napailing siya. How can a man let a girl like this go?
Eherm! Sinadya niyang i clear ang lalamunan para mapansin siya ng babae. Gulat na nagtaas ito ng tingin.
Yes? May kailangan ka ba? Tanung nito sa kanya. Her full mouth got Cael's attention right away. It looks so plump and juicy. He almost bend down to kiss her.
Maaga ka. Ano ngang name mo? Tanung niya.
Nakunot ang noo ng babae bago ito sumagot. Are you new here? May kailangan ka ba kay Sir Duarte? Wala pa siya pwedeng mamaya ka na bumalik.
Natawa si Cael. Clearly the girl doesnt know him. Hindi yata ito nakinig sa meeting kahapon kung pagbabasehan ang pagiging clueless nito.
That's what happen to people who doesn't care about the business. Kung nakinig ka kahapon, you will know who I am. Besides, wala si Duarte Kang. He went to England in business. Yumuko siya para magpantay ang tingin nila ng babae. She flinched and scooted away from him. Her action made him frown. Its a classic move of a person who was hurt physically.
She kept biting her lips and went pale. Nagtaad ng kamay si Cael showing her he meant no harm.
S-sorry sir. M-me problema kasi sa bahay kaya ako umalis agad. She took a deep breath. Im Zoe by the way.
Inbot niya ng kamay nito at nakipagkamay. She has soft hands with caluses on the side of her forefingers and thumb. Cael cant help but notice how she kept her fingernails trimmed. Walang nail polish.
Hi. Good morning Zoe. Stay calm. Hindi naman ako nangangagat. How long have you worked here?
